#Update Works Great
6 messages in this thread
Just to let you and Konstentin know that I downloaded the update on Thursday,
and all works without a hitch! Thanks so much!
BTW, my computer at work runs DOS 5.0 on a 386. Right now, I am doing a
Back-up/Restore to move the changes I make from home to work.
1. Is there a better way?
2. Can I run the update on my computer at work even if it is a 386 running DOS
5.0?
Thanks, Doug
Doug,
Backup and Restore is still the best way to move changes. Now there is a
selective Restore, so you can move only the files you want.
The update should be fine on your 386 at work.

Martine,
I did notice the selective restore feature, but I am unsure of just which files
I should select when I do that sort of restore. Is there a list of files that
you could send me?
THanks!
